There have been several attempts to create PowerPC reference platforms for computers by [[IBM]] and others: The IBM [[PowerPC Reference Platform|PReP]] (PowerPC Reference Platform) is a system standard intended to ensure compatibility among PowerPC-based systems built by different companies; IBM POP (PowerPC Open Platform) is an open and free standard and design of PowerPC motherboards. [[Pegasos]] [[Open Desktop Workstation]] (ODW) is an open and free standard and design of PowerPC motherboards based on [[Marvell Technology Group|Marvell]] Discovery II (MV64361) chipset; PReP standard specifies the PCI bus, but will also support ISA, MicroChannel, and PCMCIA. PReP-compliant systems will be able to run OS/2, AIX, Solaris, Taligent, and Windows NT; and the [[Common Hardware Reference Platform|CHRP]] (Common Hardware Reference Platform) is an open platform agreed on by Apple, IBM, and Motorola. All CHRP systems will be able to run Mac OS, OS/2-PPC, Windows NT, AIX, Solaris, Novell Netware. CHRP is a superset of PReP and the PowerMac platforms.
 
Power.org has [[Power Architecture Platform Reference]], PAPR, that provides the foundation for development of [[Power Architecture]] computers based on the Linux operating system.
